GOES CPEX-CV

The GOES CPEX-CV dataset consists of single reflective band radiance products from the Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI) onboard the GOES-16 geostationary satellite. These data were gathered during the Convective Processes Experiment – Cabo Verde (CPEX-CV) field campaign. The NASA CPEX-CV field campaign will be based out of Sal Island, Cabo Verde during August-September 2022. The campaign is a continuation of CPEX – Aerosols and Winds (CPEX-AW) and will be conducted aboard the NASA DC-8 aircraft equipped with remote sensors and dropsonde-launch capability that will allow for the measurement of tropospheric aerosols, winds, temperature, water vapor, and precipitation. The overarching CPEX-CV goal was to investigate atmospheric dynamics, marine boundary layer properties, convection, the dust-laden Saharan Air Layer, and their interactions across various spatial scales to improve understanding and predictability of process-level lifecycles in the data-sparse tropical East Atlantic region. These data files are available from September 6-20, 2022 in netCDF-4 format, with associated browse imagery in MPEG-4 format.

GOES CPEX-CV 数据集由 GOES-16 地球同步卫星上的高级基线成像仪（ABI）所采集的单通道反射率辐射亮度产品组成。这些数据是在 Convective Processes Experiment – Cabo Verde（CPEX-CV）野外实验期间收集的。NASA 的 CPEX-CV 野外实验将于 2022 年 8-9 月在佛得角的萨尔岛展开。该实验是 CPEX – Aerosols and Winds（CPEX-AW）的延续，将在配备远程传感器和降水探测仪的 NASA DC-8 飞机上实施，这将允许对对流层气溶胶、风速、温度、水汽和降水进行测量。CPEX-CV 的总体目标是探究大气动力学、海洋边界层特性、对流、富含沙尘的撒哈拉空气层及其在不同空间尺度上的相互作用，以提升对数据稀疏的热带东大西洋地区过程级生命周期的理解和可预测性。这些数据文件以 netCDF-4 格式提供，并附有 MPEG-4 格式的浏览图像，可供下载，时间范围为 2022 年 9 月 6 日至 20 日。
